Configurable via a System Preferences pane, Backblaze can work on a schedule or run in the background to keep an eye on file changes as you make them, and your files are encrypted before transmission with AES military grade encryption, and transmitted over an encrypted SSL connection. Like its competitors, such as Mozy, Backblaze provides a software client that watches over files on the drive, then uploads any files marked in directories for backup to Backblaze's managed data centers. Now, Backblaze is back with the official launch of its Mac client (in beta, naturally), and we scored 300 invites for Ars Technica readers.
Backblaze is a service that we checked out in June for Windows users that has a "set it and forget it" approach like Mac OS X's Time Machine the client backs up nearly everything on the computer to make sure no crucial bytes are lost. Competition in the online backup market is heating up now that bandwidth and storage are cheap enough for the average consumer.
